MARKHAM WAXERS	1	1	1	-	3
WEXFORD RAIDERS	0	3	1	-	4

The most entertaining game of the year was a microcosm of the season thus far for the Waxers as a superb effort produced no luck and the Waxers ended up on the wrong end of a 4-3 decision in Wexford.

The game had every element that fans and hockey players enjoyed and was refereed in a terrific manner that saw only four minors called on the evening.

The Waxers jumped out to a 1-0 lead just over eleven minutes into the game when David Colucci banged home a rebound on a Waxer powerplay with assists to Greg Chambers and Jim Ulcar.

The score stayed that way in to the second period before Wexford pounced on three Waxer turnovers for three goals in four minutes and a 3-1 lead with seven minutes left in the second. The Waxers stormed back and Kevin Tompkins pounded home a one-timer from the high slot off a James Regan pass to cut the lead to 3-2. Tom Kotsopoulos also picked up an assist. The Waxers continued to control the play and created numerous and glorious scoring chances but entered the third period trailing 3-2.

The Raiders upped the lead to 4-2 when a fortunate bounce landed on the Wexford player's stick in the slot just 4:36 in to the third. Again the Waxers stormed back and Chambers scored to make it 4-3 with a assists to Colucci and Mike Carlesimo just four minutes later. The Waxers poured it on for the last 12 minutes and couldn't buy a goal to even the score. All in all it was a game that Markham deserved to win but they just couldn't get anything to happen for them. Both goalies played extremely well and Jeremy Wenzel continued to stand on his head when called upon stopping 30 of 34 shots on the night.
